Although I don't commend all of these commandments (mainly because I am on a budget.) If I had unlimited funds I would totally agree with Jen on these...
Thou shall not buy on sale. Because sale? Is another word for stuff not good enough to be purchased full price.
There's no such thing as too many twinsets. And you shall not rest until you have them in Every. Single. Color. (except orange, because , you know, ick.)
Remember the three most important things when buying shoes: Italian, Italian, and
Italian.
Life is too short to wear synthetic. Our Heavenly Father would not have placed all those goats in the hills of Kashmir if he wanted you to put on something fashioned from a recycled Mountain Dew bottle.
Salespeople are there to carry the heavy stuff for you. So let them. See also: Cold Beverages, Running to fetch.
Coupons are for amateurs. What good is a $400 sweater if you can't tell people you paid $400 for it? See also: Commandment, First.
"Outlets" are for plugs and creative expression, not malls. Is style so trivial to you that you're willing to purchase your clothes at a store situated between the place where they sell the deformed Goldfish crackers and designer impostor perfumes? I think not.
Only shop in stores that have a philosophy. Heck, yes, you should pay 10 percent more for a store with a philosophy (Even if that philosophy is, "Let's sucker our customers into paying 10 percent more.")
The harder to pay, the better it is. Self-explanatory. See also: Marcus, Neiman.
People who say "less is more" are simply jealous. More is always more. This is precisely the reason people go gaga over twins and litters of puppies and why a matched set of Kate Spade luggage is so much better than a single piece.
"The poorest, the weakest, the simplest child, is born for immortality. This value outweighs the entire material universe, no matter how small a mark this child makes on it. The tiniest infant owns a deathless intellect, and is as immortal as the Father of spirits. No one can tell what this child will become."
~ A Prebyterian Pastor who died in 1873
"And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise."
~ (Deuteronomy 6:6-7)
